Hello,
I can’t tell you how little I want to be here. I am 42 years old with two amazing young daughters, and a wonderful husband. This week, we had confirmation that I have lung cancer and it is not curable. The nurse emphasised that there will be some treatment options available, but they are doing more analysis to establish them. They also don’t have my MRI results yet.
Everyone around me is being so kind and helpful, and I don’t really have any questions because I know we need to wait for more info this week. But I just wanted to say hi, because even with so much love around me this feels such a lonely place. M
Hello Maz123,
A very warm welcome to the lung forum, although I'm very sorry that you have the need to join.
I'm Derek, one of the community champions on here trying to help out where I can. I see that you're still having tests to establish your treatment plan so have no questions yet, but as soon as you make some progress feel free to ask away and we'll do our best to answer based on our own experiences.
When you have a minute it would help if you could add to your own profile with a brief summary of your story and treatment. Adding this, and keeping it up to date if you can remember, helps other members tailor their replies to you. To do this on your home page click on the chair, top right, then "profile" and then "edit". Once you have written something remember to save it.
Do come back whenever you need, in the meantime my best wishes to you and your family,
Derek.
